Awesome against black...really??? So you get a 1/1 for 2 CMC and if your opponent just happens to have a card with Pro Black you can sac this and take it away for a turn. Why don't you do something useful like use something blue, such as bounce, to deal with it since you obviously are playing blue. I am going to assume you were joking.

Wow. What a poor creature. He will sac himself so a White Knight can be killed by at least a 2/3 black creature. How heroic.

Definitely the funniest, if not the most worthless, card I've ever seen.

One of my friends gave me a load of old commons yestarday. I was scanning through them, and then read this card. I literally stared at it for minutes trying to understand why it is so awful.
One of the worst cards I've ever seen.

sigh... This isn't the worst card ever. (trust me) so because of that: * that's all it gets.

I could see someone using this... perhaps... without any other wizards, or who needed something to sacrifice.

Not easily playable, but its not total garbage so: * not */2

nightcreep is actually pretty good. It can hose many a player's mana, not to mention the combo potential.

And I would say that there are many blocks far worse than Ravnica. Kamigawa, Homelands, Alara, the list goes on. Ravnica was cool, fair, and flavorfull. It was also home to fantastic cards, a masterpiece of a set.

WHY IS THIS RATED SO LOW???!?!?!!!?!111111

It is very playable- it only costs two mana. Since when are we expecting Blue creatures to roll up their sleeves and man-handle other creature. That Power/Toughness to Converted Mana Cost ratio stuff is not really for Blue (with a few exceptions). So for two mana you get a dude and a dude he is.

What better way to show you're a BAMF than to Terror someone's Akroma??

Considering there's fewer than 40 creatures that inherently have Pro-Black this is one of the worst creatures ever printed.

@kriissii: You obviously never heard of a set called Homelands. It had exactly one playable card- Sengir Autocrat. Just as a taste, check out this gem Aysen Highway.

Blue gets much better creatures than this... FOR ONE MANA. When a cheap blue creature is considered bad for its cost, you know you've got a bad card on your hands.

Sideboard only... and even then, it's a really bad choice. >_>

This is almost insultingly bad.

If it had cost only Blue, it would have been weak and very over-specific, but not terrible.

This stops white knight cold... of course if your playing blue you already could...

Should have just been a tap ability. It's too bad Cephalids with one exception were so narrow.
